Not all of the multifunctional conference halls have built-in specialised workstations that meet the international standards for simultaneous interpretation. In order to ensure a modern standard for your congress, seminar, or other public event, you can hire mobile, easy-to-install booths for simultaneous interpreters.For the interpreter’s convenience, these booths must provide good venue visibility, they must be well ventilated, and they must ensure good sound insulation so that the interpreters won’t bother the rest of the audience who are not using their services. It is also necessary for the booth design to be discreet, in order to be able to fit into any interior.
KT Serviss rents out the modular interpreting booths Audipack Silent 9300 and Silent 9500 (Netherlands) that meet all of the criteria mentioned above, as well as the latest ISO 4043 standard requirements for simultaneous interpreting booth equipment.
Our interpreting booths are easy to transport and install. Their modular system allows the front door to be mounted either on the back or the sides of the booth, which is especially important when working in small spaces. It is possible to install booths for two interpreters (internal dimensions: 1.60 x 1.60 x 2.00m); the booths can be extended to fit up to 4 persons.
The booths are equipped with cable ducts, ventilation grille in the doors, and tempered glass windows. They have a desk, ventilation system, and local lighting. For events in which the interpreting booths are not in the event hall, the booths need to have video monitors for interpreters to be able to follow the event closely.
The Audipack interpreting booths are used as a mini studio for audio recording due to their good soundproofing properties.
They can also be used as commentator booths in sporting and cultural events. In 2003, at the Eurovision Song Contest held in the Skonto Hall in Riga, KT Serviss provided 40 Audipack Silent 9300 booths of various sizes for TV and radio commentators and simultaneous interpreters.
